Scott Pelley will take over the “CBS Evening News” anchor chair from Katie Couric, effective June 6, according to a story published on the network’s web site, but that’s no cause for excitement. Contrary to glowing comments made about the
In the age of instant analysis and response of news via twitter, accuracy and attention to detail are a must. At least, that’s what “real” journalists have always told us. Today, “journalist” Chuck Todd sent out a tweet that read
Why the left-wing blogs are wrong. Several serious allegations are being leveled at Andrew Breitbart. Amusingly, these complaints are even taking shape as a verb: to be “Breitbarted” is to be maligned unfairly with “selectively-edited” video that is taken out
The Bookworm has a good roundup of the ever-changing narratives spilling forth from bin Laden’s death: Usually when governments use misinformation, they use it to make themselves look good. The Obama Administration gets points for originality, insofar as it’s been

From Poynter: Reuters White House photographer Jason Reed describes how the president made his speech to a single TV camera, then immediately after finishing, he pretended to speak for the still cameras. Reed writes: “As President Obama continued his nine-minute
From Accuracy in Media‘s Benjamin Johnson: The word ‘war’ is overused. There is a “war on drugs,” a “war on trans-fats” and “a war on Lindsay Lohan” (the latter I completely agree with). Seems every minor cultural conflict is hailed
The objective of Media Matters For America (MMFA) is to tell half-truths, spin, distort and well … let’s face it, they will do anything except deal with the facts in order to try and discredit anyone who disagrees with the

From Glenn Greenwald’s recent Salon piece: The U.S. has erupted in a collective orgy of national pride and renewed faith in the efficacy and righteousness of military force. I don’t see it that way, but so what if the U.S.
It’s often when the logic of the left fails epically, but this was particularly juicy since the left has been working overtime to server the tie of bin Laden’s death to the Bush administration. Keith Olbermann and many socialist new
